i'm (less than a novice) using MSVC++6 to compile the winamp plugin from WinCVS and am getting a DLL between 2-3 times the size of the one someone was so kind as to email me (a month or so ago), not to mention, quite slow (pauses between songs for 2-3 seconds)...

this is compiler-related, right? there shouldn't have been so many changes to the source as to deteriorate performace, should there have been.

now the question is: is there a way to tell VC++ to compile for size/speed like in MSVB? or do you use a CLI compiler? if so which one, and what command line.. er.. commands do you use? (tinkered around with one for a while but only got majorly confused)

just before i wrote in, i saw another option, Default, that worked (and reported the usual 4 warnings). are there any other options to tweak in the Settings panel? Warning Levels, Preprocessor Definitions, or Project Options?

however, i've run into this error (both on the ZIP i downloaded from the audiocoding website and from getting the code in WinCVS.. i wanted to make sure the same thing happened at home that did at school)
